Great experience. Amazing teacher who took her time with both of us and was very patient to show us the techniques. Also, very encouraging and peaceful atmosphere. 10/10 experience and would highly recommend to anyone else
We had an awesome relaxing time painting. Our instructor was super nice and patient with us. We were very happy with our results.
My daughter loved it, the teacher was great, and the final piece she made was fantastic.
Such an exciting class Made a lamp and had alot of fun
very nice experience!!! The teacher was very patient and fun!
The teacher is patient and clear, encouraging a relaxed experience even while imparting important basic techniques that can be used later. She has an excellent sense of design that helps students to understand how to improve their work within the context of traditional Sumi-e style. I enjoyed this introduction while deepening my understanding and achieving a better result than I anticipated. Highly recommend.
Fun experience, the teachers were very friendly and informative. I will cherish my lamp forever!!!
We had so much fun making the lamp shades. The instructors were very helpful and patient. We definitely recommend as a fun activity for any type of group.
Rensui was an amazing teacher! It was my first time painting/calligraphy and she was super encouraging and helpful. I would highly recommend and would love to come back for another lesson!
My adult daughter and I had a wonderful time. Our instructor, Rensui, was so helpful, enthusiastic, and energetic. We made some great memories today and have a lovely painting which makes me smile. Highly recommend!
